The AWS Environmental team is an expanding and dynamic team that is critical to enabling AWS’s growth around the world, as well as ensuring compliance of AWS’s global operations, including physical data centers, as well as other AWS facilities, customer-facing enterprises and products. The Environmental team has responsibility for developing and implementing AWS’s global environmental programs.

We are seeking a Regional Environmental Engineer to be responsible for AWS environmental compliance in Dublin. The environmental engineer will ensure standards and policies support regulatory compliance, and they will provide appropriate environmental guidance to regional operations, real estate, design and construction teams. The individual will complete contractual and environmental performance analysis, establish and monitor metrics, support due diligence processes and guide the teams in implementation of Amazon environmental procedures. The environmental engineer will work with internal and external partners that include government entities, contractors, consultants, design, construction, operations and other key stakeholders.

The Regional Environmental Engineer must have excellent communication skills, strong environmental regulatory knowledge, demonstrated success in program development and project management of complex and technical projects.

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.
